HOLDEN COMMODORE V6 3.8LTR EFI
INTO
TRITON 2WD.
V6
Conversions have developed a conversion kit to allow the fitting of the
Commodore V6 EFI engine and T700 auto or T5 manual gearbox, from VN
through to VY to the 2WD Triton petrol or diesel vehicles. There is some
cutting and welding required in this conversion in the engine mount
area.
To comply with Australian emission laws the engine must have been manufactured the same year or later than the vehicle. The engine must also have all of the emission components connected, including the catalytic converter. The engine must also be run on unleaded fuel or LPG.
In Australia an Engineers report is required after the conversion has been completed. Contact your local RTA office for a list of Engineers.
CONVERSION INFORMATION.
The kit is designed to allow the use of air-conditioning and power steering, you use the Commodore power steering pump and the Commodore A/C pump and adapt the lines. You use the Commodore engine mounts with our weld on engine mount brackets and a VN gearbox rubber mount with our bolt on gearbox mount.
You will need to obtain the following components –
* The Commodore V6 engine complete with the main engine wiring harness, the ECM computer and memcal. Other accessories such as the map sensor, purge canister, air cleaner & ducting, air-conditioning compressor & power steering pump, engine pipes & catalytic converter, external fuel pump & damper.
The Series One engines have two crankshaft bolt patterns and starter motor types, the manual transmission type and the automatic transmission type. For this reason they are not interchangeable.
However, Series Two and later engines have the same crankshaft so they can be converted from automatic to manual by fitting a flywheel and changing the memcal. This only applies to VN and VP engines, VR and later engines have different computers and wiring looms for automatic and manual.
The standard Commodore in tank, fuel pump cannot be used. We recommend you use an external EFI Commodore V6/V8 pump ( Ashdowns part no: BFP070 ).
The Commodore does not have an engine driven fan and the Commodore electric fan and shroud will not fit in the engine bay. An electric fan is required, we recommend that you use a Davis Craig DC16 or similar.
The wiring kit we have available covers from the VN – VY. It comes in 2 parts, the under bonnet loom with all the relays and fuses and the under dash loom which incorporates an engine trouble light. The wiring kit plugs into the original engine and gearbox loom leaving only 6 wires to be tapped into your vehicles original loom, which are – alternator light, oil light, temp light or gauge, ignition, starter & tacho.
Our speedo kit comes in 2 forms, an in line speed sensor that fits the T700 or T5 and your original cable to suit VN – VP, or an electronic speedo from VR – VY instillations.
